Apple to 'Pay' OpenAI for ChatGPT Through Distribution, Not Cash

🧀

Apple Inc. integrates ChatGPT from OpenAI into Siri and new writing tools for its devices, counting on brand and technology distribution as compensation rather than monetary payments. As the partnership grows, it may evolve into a revenue-sharing model where Apple takes a cut from monetized AI chatbot services on its platforms, compensating for potential losses from its search engine deal with Google.

  • Apple does not initially pay OpenAI for ChatGPT integration.
  • OpenAI compensates for use of ChatGPT through Microsoft's Azure.
  • ChatGPT will be free on Apple products with the option for users to subscribe.
  • Apple also plans to integrate Google's Gemini chatbot.
  • Apple aims to generate revenue through future AI partnerships.
